1 Timothy 6:11-16 - Renewed Charge To Timothy

11 But you, O man of God, must flee from these things; and strive for uprightness, godliness, good faith, love, fortitude, and a forgiving temper. 12 Exert all your strength in the honourable struggle for the faith; lay hold of the Life of the Ages, to which you were called, when you made your noble profession of faith before many witnesses.

13 I charge you--as in the presence of God who gives life to all creatures, and of Christ Jesus who at the bar of Pontius Pilate made a noble profession of faith-- 14 that you keep God's commandments stainlessly and without reproach till the Appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ. 15 For, as its appointed time, this will be brought about by the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, 16 who alone possesses immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, and whom no man has seen or can see. To Him be eternal honour and power! Amen.
